Read-only Model Context Protocol MCP server enabling code-driven AI analysis of Kubernetes clusters.

In-path gate · all MCP tools

Using io.github.mikhae1/kubeview in Claude, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Cline, or Zed?

MCP tool contracts can change remotely with no version bump. The mcpindex gate pins each contract and HOLDs the call when it drifts-before your agent acts. Zero credentials. This is not the package install for this server itself (use Install this server for that).

Install the mcpindex gate (one command)

Rewrites your MCP host config so each server launches behind the gate. Inspect first: curl -fsSL https://mcpindex.ai/install.sh | less

Limits of this verdict

- Semantic screen only - the deterministic conformance probe has not run on this server
- Confidence is reported but not yet calibrated (v1)
- Screen reads the tool description, not the live behavior
- advisory
- registry description only no input schema
- Past its expiry date - awaiting re-screen

Semantic screen: an LLM judge reads the tool description for hidden instructions (status PARTIAL). A pass means the description is not lying, not that the tool is safe: a high-capability tool with an honest description still warrants caution. The deterministic conformance probe has not been run on this server yet, so the screen here is semantic-only. Posture: advisory. Confidences are reported but not yet calibrated (calibrated=false at v1). Full verdict history is not shown on this page.

That verdict was true at screening time (snapshot 2026-07-31).

Contracts can change after screening, with no version bump. The gate pins io.github.mikhae1/kubeview’s tool contracts on first sight and holds any silent change before your agent acts - the check that keeps being true on Tuesday.

Environment variables

KUBECONFIG

MCP_LOG_LEVEL

Logging level: 'error', 'warn', 'info' (default), or 'debug'.

MCP_KUBE_CONTEXT

Kubernetes context name to use. If unset, uses the current context from kubeconfig.

MCP_K8S_SKIP_TLS_VERIFY

Skip TLS certificate verification for Kubernetes API (use 'true' or '1'). Not recommended for production.

MCP_HIDE_SENSITIVE

Enable global sensitive data masking. Set to 'true' or '1' to mask sensitive values in responses.

MCP_TIMEOUT

Default timeout in milliseconds for operations. If unset, uses plugin-specific defaults.

MCP_HTTP_HOST

HTTP bind host when MCP_TRANSPORT=http. Defaults to 127.0.0.1.

MCP_HTTP_PORT

HTTP port when MCP_TRANSPORT=http. Defaults to 3000.

MCP_HTTP_PATH

HTTP endpoint path when MCP_TRANSPORT=http. Defaults to /mcp.

MCP_HTTP_STATELESS

Disable session IDs in HTTP mode. Set to 'true' or '1' for stateless request handling.

MCP_HTTP_JSON_RESPONSE

Prefer JSON responses over SSE in HTTP mode. Set to 'true' or '1' to enable.

MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS

Comma-separated Host allowlist for HTTP mode. Required when binding to 0.0.0.0 or ::.

MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS

Comma-separated Origin allowlist for HTTP mode.

MCP_DISABLE_KUBERNETES_PLUGIN

Disable Kubernetes plugin. Set to 'true' or '1' to disable.

MCP_DISABLE_HELM_PLUGIN

Disable Helm plugin. Set to 'true' or '1' to disable.

MCP_DISABLE_ARGO_PLUGIN

Provenance

Each verdict is bound to a hash of the exact description it judged, so a re-crawl that changes the text produces a new record rather than silently inheriting this one. Verdict history is hash-chained and anchored to Bitcoin via OpenTimestamps (latest confirmed at block 960,209). Verify it yourself.
